Stepper-driven accuracy

The Problem

Seeing is not picking.

A picking robot needs vision, decisions, motion, and feedback in one loop.

Object changes Camera sees it, but the robot still needs a usable target.

Manual setup Operators still need to connect camera, software, and motion.

Broken loop If the pick fails, the system must know what to improve.

PickPilot goal

Turn a camera view into a repeatable pick and sort workflow. PickPilot mascot guide

Market Gap

Current tools are fragmented.

Most options solve one part. PickPilot connects the loop.

Approach	Strong at	Missing link
Manual sorting	Flexible judgment	Slow and inconsistent
Camera-only detection	Finding objects	No physical action
Robot programming	Repeatable motion	Hard to adapt
Simulation	Safe testing	Disconnected from hardware
PickPilot	Vision, planning, robot action	One integrated workflow

Product Flow

One workflow from camera to sorting.

The audience only needs to understand what happens from seeing an object to moving the arm.
